The clone did not return for a long time, so Tang Sanzang waited patiently.
He really thought that his clone had gone to eat vegetarian food.
However, while waiting, Tang Sanzang couldn't help but recall the fierce appearance of his clone.
And the indestructible iron staff in his hand.
Tang Sanzang was really afraid that this stick would hit his head one day.
Tang Sanzang could not help but think of many things.
"This monkey is not a good person. Will he really obediently protect This Penniless Monk if I give him benefits?”
"This Penniless Monk doesn't think it's possible, but since the Arhat said so, This Penniless Monk has no choice but to believe it. The Arhat wouldn't lie to This Penniless Monk, right?”
"This Buddhist hat is a rare treasure. It is said that the road to the western paradise is extremely bumpy and you might encounter great danger at any time.”
"If I wear the Buddha hat, I will be immune to all evil and my body will be immortal. I will definitely be able to walk to the Western Paradise smoothly. Why would I need anyone to protect me?”
"No, This Penniless Monk is a monk. How can I have such greed?”
"You actually want to take this Buddha hat for yourself. Amitabha, I'm guilty!”
Tang Sanzang realized that he was greedy and immediately sat down to recite the scriptures.
No matter how much he fasted and chanted, he was still a mortal after all.
Greed was inevitable.
Once this greed appeared, although he suppressed it, how could it be so easy to expel?
Or did such a thought pop up in his heart?
In the end, he started to argue in his heart.
That monkey was able to wreak havoc in the Heavenly Palace 500 years ago. He had remarkable abilities and did not need this Buddhist hat at all!
And This Penniless Monk needs it. Why don't This Penniless Monk keep it for himself?
Amitabha!
This Penniless Monk is greedy again!
No way!
Tang Sanzang roared in his heart. Then, he figured it out.
"Alright, wait for Monkey to come back and take a look. If he wants it, then give it to him.”
"If he doesn't want it, then This Penniless Monk will take it himself.”
"Give him what he doesn't want. This has nothing to do with This Penniless Monk.”
"Yes, yes, that's all."
Tang Sanzang nodded.
Tang Sanzang had already started to have selfish motives.
He didn't expect that under his simple and honest appearance, there was actually such a shameless heart.
That's right. Isn't the core of Buddhism shameless?
Tang Sanzang was the reincarnation of the Golden Cicada Master, so he must have inherited some of it.
He spoke in two different ways.
If the clone left on its own accord, was it going to come out and be a bystander?
Of course not, he had his own plans!
In the blink of an eye, the clone arrived at the East Ocean Dragon Palace!
"Great Sage, why do you have time to come to the Dragon Palace?”
The old Dragon King greeted him with a smile.
"Why? Can't you come?"
The clone swaggered in.
The old dragon king's eyes flashed with a trace of coldness, and then he followed him with a smile.
"Of course not. Great Saints can come and go as they please in this small Eastern Sea.”
The clone turned around and looked at the old dragon king with a half-smile. Then, he turned around and continued walking.
The old dragon king was shocked. The monkey today seemed to be different from before.
"Someone, serve the wine." The old dragon king shouted, and the shrimp soldiers and crab generals carried the wine of the Dragon Palace up.
The old dragon king personally poured wine for the clone.
"Great Sage, this is the best wine in our Dragon Palace.”
The clone picked up the wine, but he did not drink it. Instead, he poured it on the old dragon king.
In that one ten-thousandth of a second, the old dragon king Ao Guang's eyes were filled with anger.
It disappeared in a flash, but it was still caught by the clone.
"Great Sage, is this wine not to your liking?”Ao Guang smiled apologetically.
The clone poured himself a cup, but this time, he drank it directly.
"Good wine, really good wine."
"However, I really can't imagine that the former overlord of the world, the dragon race! He had actually fallen to such a state! You, Ao Guang, are a dignified early-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal. I spilled wine on you, and you actually endured it!”
"Moreover, 500 years ago, when I came to the Dragon Palace to take the Godly Sea Steadying Needle, you were also servile!”
"Why is the Dragon Clan in such a state?"
The clone's words deeply struck Ao Guang's heart.
That's right!
The dragon race was once the overlord of the world!
Now, he had fallen to such a state. It was really too sad!
During the prehistoric times, the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans dominated the prehistoric times!
Supreme!
But with the beginning of the Longhan Cultivation Tribulation, the three clans began to decline!
It was still fine for the Dragon race. At the very least, all the Four Seas were descendants of the Dragon race!
As for phoenixes and qilins, they were almost all extinct. Only a few survived.
Although there were many living dragons, their bloodline had been passed down.
However, he was living a miserable life!
The current dragon race did not have any dignity under the Heavenly Court!
For example, at the beginning of the Journey to the West, the Jing River Dragon King was directly beheaded, and the dragon race did not even dare to fart!
The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas were all Carefree Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals, but they were ordered around by the Heavenly Court to do trivial things like casting clouds and rain. It was simply a waste of talent and an insult.
The most infuriating thing was that even Primordial Immortals like the Feast of Peaches could participate, but they couldn't.
They completely looked down on dragons!
Just treat it as raising a dog!
There was no dignity at all!
"Great Sage, if you're here as a guest, I welcome you.”
" But if you have other motives," Ao Guang said," please leave."”
Ao Guang finally became a little more stubborn.
"When the Heavenly Court was strong, you relied on it and lived a lowly life.”
"Now that the Buddhist Sect is about to prosper, you want to rely on the Buddhist Sect and become fence-sitters.”
The clone was right. The dragon race was going to rely on the Buddhist Sect.
And they had used the little White Dragon Ao Lie to make this move.
Otherwise, unless the West Sea Dragon King was a lunatic, he wouldn't be able to do anything.
Otherwise, why would he personally report his son to the Heavenly Court?
The dragon race did this because they had an agreement with the Buddhist Sect.
He would let the little white dragon become the mount of the person who wanted to retrieve the scriptures. After reaching the Spirited Mountain, he would obtain the Golden Body Fruit.
He hoped that he could have a place and lead the dragon race to live a better life.
"Is Buddhism good? He was just a hypocrite with a mouth full of compassion. Even if the little white dragon became a Bodhisattva, the dragon race would not have an easy time.”
"The Buddhist Sect uses the Eight Heavenly Dragons as mounts and treats you like beasts.”
The clone continued.
"Sun Wukong, this is the Dragon Clan's own business. You don't have to worry about it!”
Ao Guang was furious. He was certain that the Sun Wukong of today was too different.
In the past, Sun Wukong was ignorant.
How could he see the situation so clearly now?
However, didn't Ao Guang know what he said?
No, Ao Guang was very clear!
He did not want to rely on the Heavenly Court or the Buddhist League.
However, if they did not rely on it, it would be very difficult for the dragons to survive in this world.
That was because the dragon race had no backer!
Otherwise, why would they end up like this?
"Soon, the little White Dragon will return.”
"Old Dragon King, the Heavenly Courts and Buddhist League aren't reliable, but my Flowerfruit Mountain and you are neighbors, so we are much more reliable.”
The clone left after saying that.
"What does this monkey mean?" The old dragon king was confused.”
Why did his clone come to the Eastern Sea?
The East Sea and the Flowerfruit Mountain were neighbors. Sun Wukong knew that he would have to face the Heavenly Court and the Buddhist League sooner or later.
The Flowerfruit Mountain did not have enough troops. If they could pull the dragon race under their command, it would be much better.
This was his plan.
As for why the Dragon Clan would follow him so loyally…
He had his own plans in the future.
